Experimental Investigations of the Winter Cloud/Radiation Environment of the Southern Ocean Marginal Ice Zone: A Pilot Study (SGER)

这个探索性研究小额资助项目将研究南极冬季海洋大气的长波辐射环境。具体来说，5到20微米波长区域的天空辐射将与云和地面条件、太阳辐射以及大气温度和湿度剖面相结合进行观测，以产生高质量的数据集，以验证预测总辐射场的辐射传输模型，并量化大气、海冰和海洋之间的能量分配。该项目的观测阶段将于1995年7月和8月在海洋学研究船上Nathaniel B. Palmer进行。* * *

9523260 This Small Grants for Exploratory Research (SGER) project will investigate the long-wave radiation environment of the antarctic marine atmosphere in the austral winter. Specifically, the sky radiance in the five to twenty micron wavelength region will be observed in conjunction with cloud and surface conditions, solar radiation, and the atmospheric temperature and moisture profile, in order to produce a high quality data set to validate radiative transfer models that predict the total radiation field, and quantify the partitioning of energy among the atmosphere, sea ice, and ocean. The observational phase of the project will take place on the oceanographic research ship Nathaniel B. Palmer, in July and August of 1995. ***
